Ok, the Force of Nature bug is absolutely hilarious.

EDIT: Oh and yeah, Gruul was buggy for us as well. Nothing that couldn't be dealt with but the rogues didn't care for pull #1 much.

After an ugly start, we used two off-tanks (in our case a pair of feral druids) on Gruul. We still had a rogue taking Hurtful Strikes but the rest of the melee survived without a scratch.

Hot fix appled to Gruul today, should be fine now.

Warlocks can unbanish by recasting banish and seeing the 'immune' message. Found this pretty helpful in speeding up our last Karazhan trash pulls and in Mechanaar.

Did they add a huge social aggro pulse to the Murloc packs in Morogrim's room? We just tried the completely normal wateralk scheme and wiped 3 times to adds (once Morogrim himself, once 2 other packs of Murlocs, then we moved back just a little, and the Fathom-Witch pack added).

Any other waterwalk-er's here?

Can't confirm gruulbug for eredar/eu on 06/06/07 - worked properly for 4 differnt guilds.

Morogrim has been slighty repositioned, so that you can skip him now by moving left or right side along (tauren or draenai may stuck between the doodat at the left side). The aggro range hasn't been changed as it seems for me.

We allways killed the witches and rekilled them after the respawn, but i can't think of a savezone after that mobs (there is roaming pat, avoiding this - walking from one end of the floor to another since i can remember).

That's because they hotfixed it today.

We had our raid crash in SSC. We logged back in almost immediately, with the majority of our raid at very low life/mana. We were at the entrance, Hydross trash was down but the trash we cleared along the way to Morogrim respawned.

Our SSC was then bugged into a heroic difficulty mode. No one could zone in (Heroic difficulty mode not available) and we didn't find out until we needed to replace 3-4 people.


Update: A soft reset fixed the problem. Also, heroic SSC trash doesn't drop any epics.

Another guild in their had the exact same problem - working to Morogrim, SSC crashed and all their trash repopped. We were making our way to Lady Vashj and us, as well as them, reported many people losing all their buffs, including flasks and pots.

There seems tobe alot less vortex dropping now, think we had 1or2 on a clear of SSC and none killing alar and VR

whilst swapping raid members we had alot of people relog and end up in shattrah as soon as they logged in Oo

Yesterday the Gordunni Back-Breakers above Shattrath cast their enrage on the player fighing them instead of themselves. Dunno how new that is.

Later while doing the daily escort quest in Skettis, I got healed out of the blue, with no one around. According to the combat log, it was one of the invisible high priests that healed me. Nice gesture I guess, given how annoying those mobs are when you can see them.

The GM didn't seem to have heard of either before.

There's at least one other type of mob casting enrage on players, I want to say Arakkoa in HFP but I'm not sure, it definitely happened to me while leveling though.

This has always happened as far as I'm aware. Every time I do the escort quest I receive healing from the time lost priests. It's very nice although rather unnecessary usually.

The enrage thing is just Enraging Strike, some developer's little inspiration.

That would explain it. However the linked enrage on wowhead is weaker than the buff I got.

The 30% speed increase is the same. But I got 71 additional damage instead of 1, which is nice with a 1-hander. That could be a typo somewhere I guess.

The other non-elites there seem to enrage normally.

We did our normal waterwalking routine to get to Tidewalker last night and had no problems at all with any of the trash acting weird... except a warrior getting shadow nova'd into the water and having his guard go running off down the bridge to say hi to another naga/greyheart pack, but that's not really strange. Murloc pack patrols in his room were normal, and we didn't really have any issues with the murlocs during the fight except our shadow priest getting ganked from VE healing aggro when he got graved shortly after an earthquake, though that only happened once and I assume it was just bad timing that the murlocs were close to where he got graved and didn't have time for another healer to pull healing hate before they got him.

I always get a Battle Shout, while not grouped, whenever I get near that NPC. I assumed it was from the caged NPC, but perhaps not.

The amount of epics from week 1 vs week 2 and 3 on Solarian is staggeringly different. We probably got 2-3 epics per trash pull on week 1. Its about 1 epic per 3 pulls now.

"Random" for the win....

Anyways, the banish change is quite nice. (Where you can re-cast banish on a mob you already have banished, and it causes it to instantly break). Since you can only have 1 target banished at a time, pre-2.1 if you banished a mob and already had a different one banished, that one would obviously break. I think they probably removed the target/immune check for banishing a 2nd mob in 2.1 or something, which means your original banish wears off even though you didnt actually banish a second mob.

Quite nice for Hydros adds, some of the TK trash packs in VR room, and general trash mobs in 5mans.

I agree, and I know this sounds 'Deep breathy', but we did have alot more random epics first week of 2.1.0.

We got maybe 1, clearing Morogrim through Leotheras... I'd agree that the drop rate has been adjusted.

I'm sorry if this is common knowledge but, yesterday while doing Morogrim I had an Earthquake or two "miss" me. I mean, in my combat log, it said "Morogrim's Earthquake misses you." I took no damage and didn't get knocked over.

I didn't take any screenshots (I should have) but, I've never had this happen before and it was very odd. Was this introduced in 2.1 along with the LoS changes or has it always been that way?
